Jeff Pierce Bio Jeff originally hails from North Carolina and grew up with an athletic background playing football, baseball and running track throughout his formative years. He received a college scholarship and lettered two years on the gridiron before practices gave way to rehearsals after he was “bitten by the theatre bug.” After earning his B.A. in Mass Communication from Elon University, N.C., he decided against becoming a journalist and went back to hone his skills as an actor at the North Carolina School of the Arts. He currently lives in New York City, after having lived in Los Angeles for six and a half years. His theatre credits are myriad, and he has enjoyed playing the role of Frankie in FOREVER PLAID in several productions and Curly in OKLAHOMA! with now wife Colleen Hawks. Off Broadway he has portrayed Bill Clinton in HILLARY AND MONICA: THE WINTER OF HER DISCONTENT, and Felix in MY THREE ANGELS. He received critical acclaim for his performance as Blane, “the ex- hustler with a heart of gold,” in the new musical hit, TROLLS at the Coast Playhouse in West Hollywood, and he can be heard on the premiere cast recording. Other Southern California credits include Joe Hardy in DAMN YANKEES and Lt. Joe Cable in SOUTH PACIFIC. Personal favorites are Billy in CAROUSEL, Sky in GUYS AND DOLLS, Rev David Lee in THE FOREIGNER, Lancelot in CAMELOT and Billy Crocker in ANYTHING GOES. Jeff was also seen at PCPA in Santa Maria and Solvang as Tommy in BRIGADOON. Jeff did a three year tour of duty in the Broadway First National Tour of MISS SAIGON, understudying and performing many times as Chris, the romantic lead. Keep an eye out for him as George (A.K.A. “Oswaldo”) in the new film, THE DEVIANTS recently released on VHS and DVD. Jeff was married on the lovely Kahala Beach in Oahu to the beautful and talented Colleen Hawks in May 2005. The wedding was witnessed by a few family members and the Honeymoon was in Maui.
